Abstract: Several audio signal processing techniques may be used in various combinations to improve the quality of audio represented by an information stream formed by splice editing two or more other information streams. The techniques are particularly useful in applications that bundle audio information with video information. In one technique, gain-control words conveyed with the audio information stream are used to interpolate playback sound levels across a splice. In another technique, special filterbanks or forms of TDAC transforms are used to suppress aliasing artifacts on either side of a splice. In yet another technique, special filterbanks or crossfade window functions are used to optimize the attenuation of spectral splatter created at a splice. In a further technique, audio sample rates are converted according to frame lengths and rates to allow audio information to be bundled with, for example, video information. In yet a further technique, audio blocks are dynamically aligned so that proper synchronization can be maintained across a splice. An example for 48 kHz audio with NTSC video is discussed.

Abstract: A book covering apparatus (I) has a stand with twelve compartments (2) arranged in two rows. Each of the compartments (2) contains a number of book cover blanks (101). There is a specific book height value associated with each compartment (2), and each height value is colour coded. These height values are marked out using the colour codes on a guide (9) having a base plate and a stop plate (II). There are markings (20) indicating an alignment corner for a book (B) and colour strip markings (21) for the height values. Each book cover blank (101) is suitable for use with a wide range of book widths, but only with a specific height range. Each is stored in a particular relevant compartment (2) for its height. The user aligns a book (B) with the stop plate (II) to determine the height range value by checking the closest visible colour strip (21). He or she then selects a blank (101) from the relevant compartment (2) and proceeds to cover the book using this blank (10]). Because it has been selected according to the height range indicated by the guide it is a good fit for the book. <Figure 1>
